| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- It was interesting to see that the last episode focused on that boy that draws, but was hoping more out of it. I was never a big fan of Yami Shibai, and this season was easily the worst of this series. They depended on grotesque monsters for scares, but it made the season look like a comedy. 2/5 |
 |
| So it turns out that the little kid was indeed the storyteller, and he's actually evil! Who would've thought he'd go after the kids too. Nice to hear his "Oshimai" and that jingle again, though 97% of the stories sucked this season. |
 |
| Soo it turned out that all the drawings came to life. A nice closure to find out that the boy was indeed the storyteller. Unfortunately I agree that maybe only 2-3 episodes out of the 13 were actually good. |
| Didn't really get the ending but that's an extra point for the storyteller. Was it ever revealed what was under the mask? Anyway, it's a shame about this season. It could've been great, it certainly had the atmosphere but the monsters were just far too cartoony to be at all creepy. At least Kagewani's back. |
| Eh, this season felt underwhelming imo compared to the previous ones. Just didn't feel anything for the finale either and wasn't scary at all, if it was even that for that intention. |
 |
| Was this like an origin story for the storyteller? Lol kind of interesting, but literally none of the episodes this season scared me. I kind of hope they don't make anymore of this series...... |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Absolutely loved the last episode of the season. it was the only episode throughout the series that was actually that actually shed a bit of light on the story teller which only appeared absent from the third season. the only sad thing about this last episode is that since it did give us insight on what was going on what was going on behind the scenes of "story time" is that it's foreshadowing that there wont be a 4th season. :( |

| So he was the storyteller all along. Nice twist. I think we can all agree that if this was chronologically backwards, he got better with his stories. |
  |
| 6/10 I would be up for a movie if they use the 1st season's stories. Storyteller was drawing the events, but he himself is a monster in human clothing? |
 |
| 4.5/10 the best thing about this season was the ending song. I need to find the full version |
| Well, that was an unexpected good ending. I'm gonna miss this anime. |
 |
| I can't believe it, not even for the damn finale, they didn't gave us the full song! |
| wow glad that I don't drop the entire season was half bad but the ending was surprisingly good horror stories based on real facts are better, so make them real and then tell the story, nice storyteller |
| goodbye Yami Shiabai 3rd season |
| All I gotta say is I hope they if they decide to carry on making any more seasons (which they might) they'll be better than whatever the fuck this season was. Turned a short horror anime into a short 4 min. comedy. Only thing good about this season was the ending theme. Love The Mirraz! |

| that was some GOOD SHIT marathoned all of it in one sitting~ |
| A few of this season's episodes came off as really silly due to the monster designs, but honestly I really hope there's more to come. Idk when I started looking forward to Yami Shibai the most out of everything I watch each week, but that's a thing that apparently crept up on me. Even if they're dumb looking it's still so much fun, please continue! c: I love you Yami Shibai pls don't go |
 |
| This last episode was actually pretty good. Too bad it doesn't make up for the rest of the season. |
 |
| For a "meh" season, the last episode was actually pretty good to be honest. |
 |
| This was the worst season because Announcer-san was only in one episode :c |
| yay, this was a good episode :D and the teacher was so cute <3 |
   |
| Loved that inception-like part in the end Shame this season sucked, only had like 1 or 2 decent episodes 5/10 |
| This episode was actually really good. I wonder, will they make a 4th Season? |
 |
| Yeah, it definitely has the weakest bunch of episodes among all seasons but they weren't all bad. I wouldn't mind another season to be honest. Even if the show doesn't offer many scary moments it's still set up the ominous atmosphere nicely. Kagewani's second season is next! 5/10 |
 |
| Went from a 5/10 to a 6/10 because yessss that episode was fantastic. Stroyteller is the best omg. |
| As I said before, this was the worst of all seasons with just a couple of episodes being actually scary. But the end was very cool. When the ending came I was like "Where the hell is the 13th head?". Then I saw it on the boy's face and I was like "Oh shit!". The last episode saved it a bit I guess. |

| They saved the best episode of the season for the last. Prety nice twist in that he's the narrator this season, |

Lil-Bird said: So he was the storyteller all along. Nice twist. I think we can all agree that if this was chronologically backwards, he got better with his stories. That's an interesting way of looking at the series, Lil-Bird! How insightful. : ) |
| They wanted to be interesting with this "twist"? xD Anyway, since we got essentially who comes up with the monsters we see each episode, I think this is the last season of Yami Shibai. Oh how I miss the first season. I would literally pin myself in front of my screen even though I was scared af. The next two seasons sucked. |
| Lame. The Yami Shibai spirit from the first season has now completely disappeared from this Yami Shibai franchise. It truly had potential.. it's a shame. |

| This last episode was somewhat better, than the whole 3rd season together, but still worse than the first two seasons. |
| Well, this was an interesting/fitting way to end this season & hopefully, series. Honestly, my favorite thing about this episode is that it seems like a perfect place to end this franchise, though due to the short duration of the episodes, if a season 4 were to happen, I'd watch it. & if it follows the pattern, it'd be scored a 2, since every season of Yami Shibai has gotten one point less than the previous for me. Anyway, this episode wasn't scary in the slightest but it shed some light on the situation, though thanks to JizzyHitler pointing it out earlier, I already knew that the kid was the Storyteller. Still, good to have confirmation & to hear The Storyteller once more. The season as a whole was terrible. In the first season, the aesthetic [mostly] meshed well with the horror atmosphere, in this season the visuals actively detracted from the experience. I find it hard to believe anyone could've found the monster designs scary, making the series attempts at thrills humorous at best, insulting at worst. Several of the episodes failed at building tension in the first place but even the ones that succeeded were unable to follow through & deliver. 3/10. |
| i'm glad they all wrapped it up in the end; the stories of the storyteller were probably just him re-telling what he had seen and drawn as a kid .w. |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| As the season progressed it seemed to get worse, but this episode was fine and kind of explained the concept of the whole season. But the season as a whole was slightly disappointing, and I think the first season is still the best. Too many boring or badly executed episodes. |
| Oh my, it was nice that this episode connected all three seasons in a way that makes this a satisfying ending to the whole series. Although this season was the least scariest of all the seasons, this episode and the ED made up for it. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| Good series overall. It's not that this season was bad or anything but the the previous seasons especially season 1 was better with the scare tactics. |
| I thought it was really meeh too. The only episode in the season that could have been decent was the first one but even it was ruined by the big problem of this season which was that every episode had to have grotesque monster popping up. The monster designs aren't even all that interesting which makes the whole thing even lamer. It's sad that the first season was mostly pretty good and the second and third range from meeh to shit. |
| Oh hey look fish face here was narrator-san. IT'S NOT LIKE WE ALL SAW THAT ONE COMING RIGHT??? This season sucked. Like. BAD. I haven't seen something this incredibly awful in such a long time, it's honestly refreshing to let out so much rage at once. This series went from genuinely intense and scary to a comedy. There were maybe one or two episodes that disturbed me. This series tried waaaaaaaaaay too hard to make its "monster of the week" scary. At some point, I think they stopped trying. No new monster designs for the last episode? Speaks laziness to me. I guess the only positive I can say at this point was that the art style improved... A lot. But even then there were some episodes that had a blatantly different art style than the last episodes. This season made me laugh and cry at the same time because of how terrible it is. Overall: 3/10 Watch it as a comedy. You'll get far more enjoyment that way. |
 |
| This was hella creepy. so is this the final season? |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| What a nice last ep!! :) |
| Holy shit that twist broke my neck and that Inception moment fucked my brain raw ♡ Seeing all the monsters from the season and the Storyteller's reveal was a nice end to this season. |
